I used Norco 10/325 since 1999, about 20-40 per day for the past five years.  A month ago I went on 2 mg Subutex but don’t like the feeling of being drugged.  The next day I went down to 1 mg/day, and have been at that dose since.   I liked the Norco because I could still function, and could “feel”, including joy.  Now I have no feelings of joy at all, just feel drugged all the time.  I meditate and exercise 30 min/day, have done that for years, so maybe that kept me grounded.

If you don’t watch the whole thing, you must AT LEAST fast forward to 0:57 — I was laughing so hard at the point the “Rebel Yell” started, I nearly threw up. I don’t post videos too often — but I’m sure most of you remember the last one. The video that earned me a C&D from St. Louis College of Pharmacy and nearly got one of their students expelled: The WORLD Famous  CRAPPY CONSULTATION.
